    Another clumsy compilation cashing in on nostalgia. A missed opportunity with the games they could have included and it launched with weird jittery framerates. Avoid.

    Poor selection of games. Why so many RPG titles? Honestly of all the memories I have of great mega drive games this collection has only a couple I used to like. Perhaps it’s a licensing issue that means these same games appear in a collection on every generation of console oth little changed. Just not good enough in my opinion I regret the purchase I should have just stuck to emulation onPoor selection of games. Why so many RPG titles?

    With over 50 games on the roster Sega Mega Drive Classics has something for most retro fans. Granted most of the games have already been seen in older collections and the emulation is not always perfect, but the ability to quick save and especially rewind is a game changer. Even though some will call it cheating, the ability to undo mistakes makes the classic games much more accessible and enjoyable than ever before.

    A compilation does not need to do much to honour its legacy. It is expected that the games play exactly as they did when they released, at the very least. Having them play worse is unacceptable. The technical issues may not be as noticeable in some titles, but they utterly break the likes of Alien Soldier.

    With more than 50 games and a ton of options to customize your experience, SEGA Mega Drive Classics is just pure fun and nostalgia. Too bad some iconic games missed the cut.
